In single-group studies, chromosomal rearrangements of the anaplastic lymphoma kinase gene ( ALK ) have been associated with marked clinical responses to Crizotinib ( Xalkori ), an oral tyrosine kinas ...
Non–small-cell lung cancer ( NSCLC ) harboring the anaplastic lymphoma kinase gene ( ALK ) rearrangement is sensitive to the ALK inhibitor Crizotinib ( Xalkori ), but resistance invariably develops. ...
The efficacy of the ALK inhibitor, Crizotinib ( Xalkori ) as compared with standard chemotherapy as first-line treatment for advanced ALK-positive non–small-cell lung cancer ( NSCLC ) is unknown. A ...
Alectinib ( Alecensa ), an oral anaplastic lymphoma kinase ( ALK ) inhibitor, has reduced the risk of disease worsening or death ( progression free survival, PFS ) by 66% compared to Crizotinib ( Xalk ...
Final, mature progression-free survival ( PFS ) from the global phase III ALEX study of Alectinib ( Alecensa ) vs Crizotinib ( Xalkori ) in untreated, advanced / metastatic anaplastic lymphoma kinase- ...
The ALEX study has demonstrated significantly improved progression-free survival ( PFS ) with Alectinib ( Alecensa ) versus Crizotinib ( Xalkori ) in treatment-naive ALK-positive non-small-cell lung c ...
Researchers have retrospectively examined progression-free survival ( PFS ) and response by ALK fluorescence in-situ hybridization ( FISH ) status in patients with advanced ALK immunohistochemistry ( ...
